I have never been so impressed with my legs! Aya and I got to the summit of Africa's second highest peak- Mount Cameroon. I think it is 4,099 meters and we made it with minimal altitude issues and no injuries! The way up was challenging and thrilling. Contrary to what the locals told us the weather was beautiful. In fact the sun you see here is the best sunshine we've gotten throughout our whole stay in Buea. Once you get above the permanent cloud cover the air is drier and the landscape surreal. The way down was probably the longest duration of pain I've ever experienced as I forgot to pack Advil. Overall the climb was the coolest thing I think I've ever done.

I think you forgot about that time you made a purse out of jeans...that was pretty cool. lol I miss you!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe you climbed the mountain. I lived in Buea for over 13 years and I never did. Which is a sodding shame if you ask me.
